Newlywed Dani Dyer reflects on THAT postcard meltdown which broke the then-record for highest number of complaints in Love Island history

Love Island series 12 is just around the corner, but on Sunday night, ITV2 pulled out all the stops with an anniversary special, celebrating 10 years of the show. Love Island: A Decade of Love featured chats and iconic moments from past winners and contestants, including newlywed, Dani Dyer. The reality star, 28, famously appeared on the show back in 2018 and went on to win with then-partner Jack Fincham, 32. But despite taking home the huge prize money, one of the moments Dani is most remembered for, is her reaction during season four's Casa Amor twist. The girls were given a video postcard showing what their partners were getting up to in the other villa, with Dani left inconsolable after she was shown a clip of Jack coming face to face with his ex-girlfriend Ellie Jones, implying there was something unsavoury afoot. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. As she watched the footage back, she was joined on the sofa by former contestant Samira Mighty, and reflected on her outburst saying: 'I went from zero to a thousand really quickly didn't I? 'I really really thought... I think it's cos his reaction was so like [gasps]'. Samira agreed saying the whole situation was 'crazy' before giving her friend a reassuring squeeze on the shoulder. Despite the drama and upset, Jack had actually barely spoken to Ellie, remaining loyal to Dani throughout. However the way the clips were shown 2,525 viewers complained, with the then Love Island host, the late Caroline Flack justifying the producers' actions by saying the point of the show is to 'test relationships.' Although Ofcom didn't investigate they confirmed that it broke records at the time for the highest number of complaints about a single issue in Love Island history. Earlier this year, appearing on Jessie Ware's podcast, Table Manners, Dani's dad, actor Danny Dyer admitted he was enraged by the scenes. He said: 'They did a really mean thing on it as well, where they sort of made it look like he was cheating on her. I was fuming. I was like I want numbers, I want f**** numbers. The clip broke records at the time for the highest number of complaints about a single issue in Love Island history and despite the drama, Dani and Jack went on to win the show, but ended up going their separate ways nine months later 'They pretended he was sleeping outside on a bed, and she was crying her eyes out, and I knew this was gonna happen to me. How could you do it to this poor child?' 'So, yeah, really hard to watch, but she came out. She really just went with it. She got a clothing range. She's such a beautiful kid. I'm so proud. I'm proud of all my babies.' Elsewhere in Love Island: A Decade of Love, Dani revealed that her new husband Jarrod Bowen's mother, voted for her and her ex Jack to win Love Island back when they were on it in 2018. After tying the knot with footballer Jarrod on Saturday, Dani confessed that her in-laws were among the thousands of fans who voted for her to take the crown. The mum-of-three was among a slew of past Islanders watching back clips of their time on the show. Sitting with pal Samira, Dani revealed that her now mother-in-law had watched her series and been a fan even back then. She told a shocked Samira: 'You know Jarrod's mum voted for us to win? So my mother-in-law voted for me and Jack to win Love Island.' It comes after Dani shared the heartwarming moment she danced with her dad at her recent lavish wedding. The emotional father-of-the-bride moment saw proud Danny slow dance with his eldest daughter, after walking her down the aisle. In a behind-the-scenes wedding reel shared to Instagram, Danny looked like he could burst with pride as he embraced daughter Dani on the dance floor. The 50 guests watched on as the father and daughter duo slow-danced under a dazzling chandelier. Calling it 'the best day of my entire life,' Dani told fans it was a memory she'd cherish always, adding: 'A day that I will want to re-live forever.'
